Ingredients
Naan
- 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
- 3/4 cups almond flour

Garlic topping
- 1 tbsp cilantro chopped

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F

- Put mozzarella cheese and butter in a bowl. Cut the 1 tbsp butter into 4 small pieces.
- Cook in microwave for 45 seconds. Stir cheese and butter with silicone spatula. Cook another 45 seconds.
- Then mix with silicone spatula. The mozzarella cheese should appear smooth.
- Add the almond flour and egg to the mozzarella cheese mix.
- Mix and fold until the almond flour and egg are well incorporated into the mozzarella dough.
- Divide the dough into 4 parts. Put on silicone mat/parchment paper on a baking tray.
- Flatten with silicone spatula until about 1/8 inch thick.
- Top each naan with garlic mix and press into dough.
- Place in oven and cook for 13-15 minutes at 400°F.

Notes
- The dough gets very sticky. Wet hands with water if you do not have a silicone spatula to mix the almond flour and eggs into the mozzarella cheese and butter.
- If you do not have a silpat, you can use parchment paper instead.
- The traditional fathead dough recipe uses cream cheese. I replaced with butter to achieve a more buttery taste.
- Enjoy with a wide variety of Indian curries!
